How to transfer Euros to a UK bank account

1. ID check

Every new customer is checked by law. For UK residents it is usually quick: name, address and date of birth.

2. Secure a rate

Get a EUR to GBP quote. Nothing happens without your say-so, and once you agree, the rate is locked in.

3. Send your Euros

Pay by normal bank transfer to the details on your confirmation.

4. We convert and pay out

Your Euros are changed to Pounds and sent to your UK bank account.

Timing

How long does it take to transfer Euros to Pounds?

It can be the same day, if your Euros reach us before the 3.30pm cut-off.

  1. 1

    You send your Euros

    A SEPA or SWIFT payment into our account typically takes 1 to 3 working days to arrive.

  2. 2

    We convert and send

    Euros that arrive before the 3.30pm cut-off can be converted that day. After it, they count as the next working day.

  3. 3

    It lands in the UK

    Your Pounds arrive in your UK bank account. When your Euros arrive in time, that can be the same day.

What does it cost?

There are two costs: a transfer fee and the exchange rate margin. Banks typically charge 2% to 5% on the rate plus a fee of €20 to €50, and some charge at both ends. The margin is usually the bigger cost, so compare the Pounds you would receive. Key Currency charges no transfer fees.

What do you need?

A quick ID check (name, address and date of birth for UK residents; a passport and a recent utility bill or bank statement if you live abroad), the Euros to send, and your UK bank account details: the sort code and account number, which also make up your 22-character UK IBAN.

Costs

Banks, online platforms or a specialist: who is cheapest?

There are three ways to move Euros to Pounds. The difference between them is mostly cost, and the biggest cost is usually the exchange rate, not the fee.

Where the cost hides

Transfer fee

A flat charge for sending the payment. Easy to see, and usually the smaller cost.

Exchange rate margin

The gap between the interbank rate and the rate you are offered. It is often not shown, and it is usually the biggest cost.

Intermediary bank fees

A payment can pass through other banks on the way, and each may take a small cut, so less arrives than you sent.

Conversion fees

Some providers add a separate conversion charge on top of their margin. Ask before you send, so you are not charged twice.

Safety

Is it safe to transfer Euros to Pounds?

Yes, as long as the company is regulated. Only use a firm that is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), the UK's financial watchdog.

  • An FCA-authorised firm must keep customer money in a separate, safeguarded bank account, apart from the company's own money.
  • Search the company's name on the FCA register. Regulated firms normally show their registration number in the footer of their website.
  • Key Currency is authorised and regulated by the FCA, and your money is held in safeguarded client accounts.
